A DIFFERENT BEGINNING

A.N. I know I have probably gave away a lot of the story, but I hope to see it through. Thanks for certain reviewers comments that are consistent I really appreciate them. As always all mistakes are mine, sorry for them in advance. This story will become more mystical, so that I can wrap it up.

Chapter 52

Galactica

Kara and Lee woke the next day and after spending an hour making love, cuddling and talking about their day, they got dressed and went to put their plan in motion to take care of Dee.

Kara found Boomer in the mess hall and after explaining the details of Lee's plan they went to the CIC and told Adama.

Adama made sure only himself and Colonel Tigh would be in the CIC, making sure things went according to plan.

Adama removed the guard after having him shackle Dee allowing Lee to remove her and take her to a waiting raptor.

Adama had checked on Roslin on his way to the CIC and Cottle had told him she was the same.

Dee was not expecting Lee and after being shackled and the guard leaving she wondered what he was up to.

Lee hadn't looked her in the face or spoke to her, she jerked away from him and backed up " What's going on Lee, you can't court martial me just on a prostitute's word " she sneered

Lee grabbed her from behind and forced her out of the cell and whispered " You are going straight to the Astral Queen on the Commanders orders, there will be no trial for you, ever "

Dee turned to look at him smirking " Oh this is because I hurt his precious Starbuck's feelings and caused her to never want anything to do with you, don't worry I have connections and will be back "

Lee wondered if she already knew what she was, he shoved her forward " Oh I'm not worried because you won't be back and Kara and I are engaged so your plan didn't work, now move"

That made her angrier " Whatever you are planning, it won't work, you'll never get me off the Galactica "

Lee laughed " You are in for a surprise, the pilots don't like what you did "

Dee had to admit she was worried especially after the way Billy had ignored her yesterday, no matter how much she taunted him.

Kara saw them coming and motioned to Sam and Racetrack who started an argument with Athena which got Helo involved. She told no one what was going on, just that Apollo needed a distraction and that was only to Racetrack and Sam. Just as she suspected the argument got everyone's attention which allowed them to take Dee from Apollo. Boomer had to knock her out when she opened her mouth to scream.

Racetrack grabbed Athena's arm " What the frak did you do to my raptor Athena, I know you used it "

Athena pulled her arm away from Racetrack " I never touched your raptor "

Helo was ready to defend Athena " Racetrack, what the frak is your problem, and don't grab her again, she is pregnant "

Sam looked and saw that Starbuck was gone and everyone was yelling " Hey it is my fault, I moved your raptor with a tow and I dinged it " he whispered so only the four of them could hear " Starbuck said Apollo needed a distraction "

Helo and Athena looked at him, he shrugged and looked at Racetrack " You tell us "

Racetrack whispered " Apollo is transferring Dee to the Astral Queen and he didn't want an audience "

Athena smiled " It's about time "

They watched as the heavy raider flew off followed by a raptor " Who is in the raider? " Sam asked

Helo knew " Boomer and Starbuck are scouting a set of coordinates "

Racetrack asked " For what? "

Athena shrugged, even though she was worried " With those two anything is possible "

They scattered after that leaving those watching wanting to know how they settled down so fast. Cally looked at Crash " What was that about? "

Crash shrugged " Normally I would say Starbuck and Apollo, but they aren't here " he touched her shoulder " Have you decided? "

Cally knew most everyone was okay with the cylons and she knew Crash wanted to stay on the Galactica " As long as I'm with you I'll stay here "

Crash nodded " The cylons aren't all bad Cally and the Commander, Starbuck and Apollo wouldn't trust them without a good reason "

Cally brushed against him as she left " I know "

The deck came to a stand still as the alarms went off. The Chief was on his way to call CIC when an announcement began, it was the Commander " Stand down it is the cylon basestars we were expecting. Helo and Athena meet me in the CIC now "

Jojo made a snarky comment to Crash " Soon there will be as many cylons as there are humans "

Crash shook his head " You had better decide cause the Galactica and whichever cylons agree will be following Aurora and the rest will be left behind, you need to choose if you are going or staying, it's that simple Jojo "

After Athena and Helo reached command there was a call from Apollo " I had to land on the Rota when the basestars jumped in and Dee escaped, I can't find her. I think she got into another transport she could be anywhere. What are you orders Commander? "

Adama had to play along " Come on back Apollo, I will have the marines on each ship search for her. There are things to be done here for now, actual out "

Athena and Helo were shocked, but Athena spoke " Sir, she is a danger to Starbuck and Apollo we need to find her fast "

Adama nodded " I know, but as long as she doesn't board the Galactica we have time, now with Boomer gone I need you to escort Caprica and Eliza over here, take Helo with you. Apollo is headed back and he can keep up with the pilots "

Heavy raider

Boomer knew the basestars would join the fleet while they were gone. Caprica had contacted her and she explained that Kara had a feeling about some star system and they were scouting for it. She then had Starbuck send an encrypted message to the Galactica letting them know to expect the basestars, luckily Dee was still passed out.

Starbuck and Boomer had been discussing how to get rid of her and who was going to do it.

Kara was getting tired of talking about it, she needed to get back to Lee " I'll do it, besides I am the one she tried to hurt "

Boomer sighed " I think I should since you are the chosen one, it might not be right for you to "

Kara shrugged " It's not like I haven't killed before "

Boomer shook her head " Not someone like her and besides you are planning on getting married today, it doesn't seem right for you to get rid of her " she paused " It's not that I want to, but I swore to protect you and this kinda falls under that "

Kara thought " How about this, when we get to the right place we suit up and strap in then open the hatch and she falls out on her on " Frak that seemed worse somehow.

Boomer nodded " As long as she stays passed out it won't be as bad for her or us " she looked back at Kara who was guarding Dee " It also means you won't get to say anything to her about what she did "

Kara shuddered " I can live with that, lets just get this over with and remember what she is " she had a thought " You don't think the other four will be pissed off at us for this, do you? "

Boomer shrugged " No one knows, except for four of us " Boomer chuckled " Even if the Adama's are any of them they won't care "

Kara laughed at that she didn't tell Boomer about Lee " They are not, trust me "

Boomer looked back at her " What do you know? "

Kara hummed " I'll tell you after we finish, now are we clear "

Boomer made one jump away from the fleet and Kobol scanning the area. She made sure they were clear in four directions, she actually didn't think anyone had jumped in this direction before.

Unknown to them Dee had just woke up and was waiting for her chance.

She looked back " Let's suit up and strap in, is she still out? "

Kara knelt down to check, at first look she seemed asleep until she raised the cuffs up and around Starbuck's neck and twisted behind her pulling them both up. With a move so fast it shocked Kara and Boomer. Dee looked at Boomer " You take me back to the fleet or I will kill her "

Boomer looked at Dee who knew that she was activated and what she was, her whole demeanor had changed. Boomer was still in shock at the strength Dee had and how fast she got the drop on Starbuck. Frak she realized then that this direction and this far out caused her to change, frak she had to come up with a plan and fast.

Kara knew something was different with Dee and she could see the worry all over Boomer's face. She had to try something and hoped Boomer played along with her plan " I can't believe you frakking played me Boomer, you and Dee had this planned out. You thought you could take me hostage and return to the cylons, then they would forgive you're betrayal "

Kara had come up with a plan " You're right Starbuck, but what you didn't know is that I brought Dee out here to activate her after finding out she was one of the final five cylons " she looked at Dee " You feel it now so you know what you are, don't you? "

Dee looked at her " Yes, I also know who the other four are, do you? " she sneered and tightened her cuffs around Kara's neck.

Frak Kara thought this just got worse. If Aurora planned on saving her, now would be the perfect time.

Boomer tried to stall Dee " No, my source only mentioned you so I could bring you to your true home, but they won't accept us if you kill Starbuck "

Dee smirked " Why would your source care about her? "

Kara snorted " It's Leobon If I had to guess and he is obsessed with me kinda like you are with Lee "

Dee sneered " Lee belongs with me "

Boomer jumped in " You're right and we can get him as long as we have her for bait, now let her go so we can make a plan to get back onto a basestar, we are running out of fuel " Boomer paused " I jumped a long way to activate you "

Dee thought she could trust a fellow cylon " What about the other four? "

Boomer sighed " They don't know who they are and won't unless they jump here "

Dee thought about it while still holding Starbuck tight around her neck " I will tell you who they are "

Kara made a mistake and shouted " No " which made Dee suspicious.

Boomer saw Kara collapse right after shouting no.

Dee fell to the deck of the raider with her as she fell over.

Boomer tried to watch through the brightest light that she had ever seen as it passed through the raider in a split second. As the light cleared Dee was gone and Kara was still passed out on the deck.

Kara woke up slowly and looked around " Where is Dee and what the frak happened to me? "

Boomer looked around too " I think Aurora came and took her, but I'm not sure "

Kara rolled her eyes " Well she took her time, she only showed up so the four wouldn't be revealed and who else could it have been? "

Boomer shook her head, still not sure it was Aurora, but kept her thoughts to herself as she helped her up " She would have saved you, but your right she doesn't seem to want the four known " Boomer made sure to write the coordinates down before telling Kara " We jumped a ways in this direction that no one has been in yet and I think it is the activation point for the cylons "

Kara shrugged " I figured that out during your little speech. Can we go home now since Dee is apparently taken care of? "

Boomer sat down " Kara do you think your way might be close to here? Should we look around before heading back? "

Kara sat up front now that Dee was gone " I guess, but Aurora is supposed to lead me home, maybe this is the wrong way. Unless she wants the four to know who they are. I guess we need to ask her about it. Frak I don't know, it is starting to get confusing. Let's take a look around while we are here "

After they flew around they moved farther away toward the edge of the system and saw a star pattern. Kara got up and went to the ECO panel to take several photos, afterwards she went back to the front " Boomer we need to keep this to ourselves until Willow can ask Aurora about this. For all we know this is Pythias way "

Boomer nodded " You may be right and we need to get back to the Galactica " she chuckled " I bet there is a lot going on right now "

As she prepared to jump Kara sighed " At least neither of us had to kill Dee "

Boomer asked " What do you think happened to her? "

Kara shivered " I don't want to know "

Galactica

After Lee finished the raptor checklist and dodged the pilots questions by saying " Later " he rounded up Chuckles, Topper and Ripper and had them meet him in the briefing room.

He waited until they sat in the first row, but before he could say anything someone cleared their throat.

It was Ripper a raptor pilot " Sir is this about the Commanders announcement? "

Lee nodded " Yes, and I need to know where you three stand since you were on cap last night when we talked in the rec room, so which way are you three going? " Lee paused " You should also know you need to decide now, as we have a mission coming up today "

Topper had been on the Galactica before the war began " I'll follow the commander and whatever he believes "

Chuckles had to ask " What happens if we don't choose to follow the commander and the unknown chosen one? "

Lee sighed " There is a meeting later where the commander will tell the fleet his decision and also let them know that the Galactica is going with or without them. " he paused " As far as the chosen one, if the religious ones can't get their people to choose Aurora's path they will also be left "

Topper was curious " What about the cylons and their choices? "

Lee paced " There are three basestars each with a leader who chose to follow the chosen one, now they have to convince their copies to denounce the cylon god, so they are doing the same thing "

Ripper nodded " Fine I'll stay the rest is to confusing, just tell me when to fly "

Chuckles " I'll stay "

Lee breathed out " Good your dismissed "

As they left Lee was called to the situation room.

Situation Room

Adama had been talking with Caprica, Natalie, Eliza, Athena and Helo who all wanted to know where and why Boomer had taken Kara away from the Galactica.

Caprica was particular upset " It makes no sense that Boomer or you would allow Kara away from the protection of the Galactica and Natalie's basestar " she looked at Natalie accusingling

Natalie crossed her arms " I am in the dark as much as you, as a matter of fact you are in communication with Boomer, so just channel her and find out " she ended with a smirk

Eliza jumped in " Boomer told Caprica they were checking out coordinates then Boomer cut communications with her "

Athena added " That makes even less sense " she looked at Adama " Boomer nor Kara would ever leave you out of the loop and you don't seem worried about them at all "

Adama sighed " Boomer will protect Kara and I'm sure they had a good reason for going dark, let's not worry until we have to " he wondered when Lee would show up. Who knew a room full of cylon women could get stuck on one subject, then again it was Kara who could cause trouble even in her absence. Before he could ask about the hub Lee walked in smiling.

Lee looked at his dad who look relieved to see him " Hey Caprica, Eliza I'm glad you finally showed up, what's up? "

Helo laughed " You don't want to know "

Caprica had stood up, but Athena asked as she opened her mouth " Where in the frak is your soon to be wife? "

Lee chuckled " She is on a mission, they will be back soon "

Caprica shook her head " The two of you are getting married? "

Lee smiled " Today after the meeting, we want you to come so you can see Willow? "

Natalie chimed in " Can I come? "

Before Lee could answer her his dad asked " When were you going to tell me and where is it taking place? "

Lee looked around the room " Mark's restaurant and it's going to be small due to the situation " he looked at Natalie " I'll ask Kara "

Caprica thought about what he said and looked at Eliza, she didn't think she had mentioned Kara as the chosen one, but she knew that Natalie had figured it out. They had talked about it again before she brought Starbuck and Apollo back to the fleet.

Adama changed the issue " I am meeting with the Quorum and fleet Captains today to let them know my intentions. Several of them has asked to speak to a couple of you, so I'll let you all decide "

The phone rang.

Adama answered it " Adama "

" Put him through "

Adama looked at Lee " I'm kinda busy, is it important? " he raised his eyebrows at Lee " Yeah he's here, hold "

Lee took the phone " Yes "

It was Adam " Willow needs to see you and Caprica now if you can bring her " Lee looked around " I can and we will be there soon "

Lee turned to find everyone looking at him " Willow needs to see Caprica now, I think it is urgent "

Natalie muttered " Oh gods what now? "

Athena remarked " That is the second time in two days that you have invoked the gods Natalie, care to share? "

Natalie smirked " I have converted "

Adama looked at Lee " I will make sure your flight pattern is covered and since Caprica will be tied up that leaves you two for the meeting. When they leave we will discuss talking points "

Lee asked " What about the mission ? " he looked at Caprica " Did you find it? "

Adama answered " They did and we will discuss it later, now go "

He looked at Helo " You two stay on the flight deck, Boomer should be back any minute and keep Racetrack on the deck and freed up "

The four of them left, leaving Adama, Natalie and Eliza to talk. First Adama called Tigh about Lee's flight record.

Cloud Nine

Before Lee opened the hatch after docking he had Caprica put on a deck crews orange work suit and a cap. " We can't chance anyone seeing you go into the restaurant. We have been able to keep Willow safe in there. "

Caprica would wear anything just to see her " How has she been? "

Lee laughed as they were walking " She's doing good she works in the restaurant like we told you and lives there also, but I should warn you she doesn't look the same "

When they walked in a few people were eating, Lee led her to the back passing Adam " She is waiting in Mark's room, well her room now that Mark is gone "

Willow had been pacing for the last thirty minutes anxious to see Caprica.

As soon as she heard a knock she yelled " Come in "

When they saw each other they both gasped.

Willow chuckled " I can't believe you wore those things "

Caprica went to her and held her arms " I can't believe you cut and dyed your hair. What are you wearing? "

Willow shrugged " This is my work uniform "

Then Willow reached and hugged Caprica as she cried " I have missed you, but Aurora told me you would be here soon "

Caprica pulled back " I've been a little busy, so what did you need with us? "

Willow pulled her to sit on the bed " It's more you " she looked at Lee " Kara is okay they should return soon "

Lee looked at her " You know, don't you "

Willow looked away from him " Yeah, there was trouble but everything turned out okay, so don't worry "

Lee stuttered " Why would she tell you these things? "

Willow shrugged " We were talking when she sensed something was wrong and left, she explained when she got back because I wouldn't stop asking her about it. I knew it was about Kara and I got a bit hysterical. I don't think Aurora was alone "

Lee edged closer " Tell me Willow "

She shook her head after eyeing Caprica " I can't, but I swear she is okay Lee "

Caprica had pulled the jumpsuit down and tied it around her waist while they were talking. Whatever it was about she knew Willow would not tell the whole story. Willow's allegiance was to Aurora and Kara and nobody was getting in the way of that, not even Apollo it seemed.

Lee let it go even though he needed to see Kara just to make sure she was okay.

Lee knew whatever Willow wanted with Caprica and maybe him must be important. " Fine, then why are we here? "

Willow stood up wringing her hands " It's about your cylons and your hybrids Caprica "

Caprica gasped " What do you mean mine, they are yours too "

Willow shook her head " No they are not, I'm different "

Caprica stood up to face her, but before she could dispute Willow Lee stated " You're different because you are the connection for Aurora, is that what you mean Willow? "

Willow smiled " Kind of, I'm not human or cylon, not anymore "

Caprica crossed her arms " Willow that makes no sense"

Willow grabbed Caprica's hand " I know Kara and Lee have destinies and were chosen by their gods, but Aurora said I have transcended and I am neither one anymore. I am closer to being an Oracle but more, that's the only way I can explain it"

Caprica turned to look at him, frak he thought.

She asked " What god chose you Apollo? " as soon as the question left her mouth she laughed " Oh my, and what is your destiny? "

Lee shook his head " We are not getting into that now and Willow don't tell anyone else, let's get back to the reason we are here "

Willow winked " One more thing and I'll shut up, Lee and Kara were chosen while in the womb and bonded together by their gods "

Lee stalked off to fix a drink muttering about Willow and Aurora.

They sat back down " Caprica we know you have checked the cylons for their loyalty, but if they still believe in the cylon god they can't go with us just as some humans can't. The place we are going will accept non-believers and after that the humans can have their separate religions, but to get there they have to accept Aurora's path. "

Lee had walked back over " My dad needs to know that before the meeting "

Willow shook her head " They already know that, but they won't give up Pythia over Aurora even to get there, that's the problem. "

Lee knew he was getting off topic " Willow have you seen the place we are going and is it Earth? "

Willow cocked her head listening " Yes I've seen it just as you three have, no it is not Earth and Pythias path leads there, but it is destroyed no one can live there. Aurora said for you two not to tell anyone especially Kara, if she knows Earth is gone she might give up on her destiny. Apollo it is your destiny to keep her on track, this all falls to you " she paused " Apollo said you are to lead the hub mission "

Lee rolled his eyes " Are you channeling two gods now? "

Willow blushed " They are together right now "

Lee asked " Then who were the people we saw? "

Willow shook her head " That is a story for another day, I have said more than I was supposed to " she looked at them both " You can tell nobody what I said about Earth or our new home, Aurora commands you not to "

Caprica asked " Then why did you tell us? "

Willow smiled at Lee " He needed to know so he can help Kara, you were just here "

Caprica chuckled " Wow, okay let's get back to my cylons and hybrids, what can I do? "

Willow looked at Lee " I am going to tell you a story and when you get back to the basestars have everyone meet at their hybrids and the story will be retold, but I must warn you after they hear it and they still believe in the cylon god then get ready to see cylons dropping unconscious where they stand "

Lee listened as she told a different story leaving out Amanda Greystone and her assistant and replacing them with two unknown people and not even mentioning the five. She also placed the blame on the first Cavil which was true. If he had any doubts to Willow's loyalty which he never really did, she just proved who she was loyal to.

Caprica was stunned and not " What about our copies on the basestars at the hub, how do we save them? "

Willow shrugged " I'm not sure you can, not without risking the ones you have now. If Aurora tells me anything I'll let you know " she looked at Lee " I'm also not sure what will happen to the humans who disagree today or after the mission. I'm guessing they will be left here, I know Aurora is ready for Kara to find her way home "

Caprica stood back up " Our hybrids speak in riddles and babble how will we understand them? "

Willow grinned " Aurora "

Lee wanted to be there when it happened " Is Aurora here now? " he caught himself looking around

Willow shook her head " Eloshi is meeting with the house of Pythia soon, she is there "

Caprica was still trying to get her head around Willow's new found belief about herself " When will we know to gather the cylons? "

Willow stood" Before the meeting, so you need to get Eliza and Natalie, fill them in and get them on their basestars "

After Willow hugged Caprica and Lee they left.

Later in the raptor Caprica asked " Does Willow hug people a lot? "

Lee laughed " Every chance she gets, you should see her with Kara " he stopped to check in with the Galactica " Kara isn't into hugging people except for a few, but when Willow hugs her she actually hugs her back, it was awkward at first but Willow grows on you, she is a special " he paused looking at her " Well whatever she has become "

Caprica didn't understand it and Apollo didn't seem to know either " Can you check and see if Natalie and Eliza are still here? "

Lee did and they were " They are still in the situation room "

Galactica

After landing Caprica took off the jumpsuit and straightened her clothes and hair before the hatch was opened.

Athena grabbed his arm and pulled him away a few feet " Boomer and Starbuck came back and they went to your room, I don't know what's happened with those two, but they both looked dazed, you need to check on Starbuck, now "

He looked at Caprica " Athena will take you to the situation room I need to check on something, but have someone let me know before you leave "

Lee took off at a fast trot.

Caprica stood in front of Athena " What is going on? " she looked over her shoulder " Boomer's raider is back and she is still disconnected, Aurora had me pledge to protect Starbuck, so I ask again what's happened? "

Athena shrugged " I took the same pledge, only Boomer will be able to answer us. I suspect the Commander and Apollo know something about it, but not all of it. Boomer and Starbuck are keeping whatever was going on or went on to themselves "

Caprica gave up " Fine, let's go we have more immediate issues to deal with right now, besides Boomer will watch over Starbuck "

Once they were gathered along with Adama in the room Caprica explained what Willow had told her along with her new belief.

Adama sighed " I wish she could do the same for the humans, this meeting may not go over well. My crew has come to an agreement, but some could be lying or plants for the religious sects "

Eliza voiced her thoughts " What do we do with the unconscious cylons? "

Natalie shrugged " Lock them up and after we destroy resurrection we take them back to Kobol and leave them "

That gave Adama an idea " Yes, and we can do the same for the humans, they can survive there " he looked at Caprica " You said Aurora is ready to go, so that is the only choice we have " he added " I will tell them so in the meeting " he clapped his hands together " Finally something I can work with "

Caprica reminded him " Except you won't know which humans are lying "

Athena smirked " We won't, but Aurora will "

Caprica nodded and looked at her sisters " We might not be able to save our copies from the basestars at the hub and we found the rouge basestar at the hub making it a total of four "

Athena asked " What number of Cavil, Doral and Deanna's are left? "

Eliza thought about it " Cavil is four, Doral second and Deanna is third, I think " she gasped " We haven't told you about the survivors we got off of Caprica, they are on our basestars, the Simon's are taking care of them "

Natalie added " Caprica, Simon and Boomer are the only originals left "

After they explained Adama wanted Sam and his guys to go over there and assess the situation, at this point the people of the fleet would demand to see them. Adama knew he couldn't afford the distraction before the meeting. He then ordered them all to keep it between themselves until later. Adama looked at Athena " That includes Helo "

Adama stood up " Go to your basestars and Eliza since you have the resistance let me talk to Sam and they can join you, let's go "

Caprica stopped " Apollo wanted to go with me, he said to let him know when I leave and I think he wanted Starbuck with him "

Adama sighed " Just go, they can take a raptor if they decide to go "

Caprica and Athena looked at each other before leaving.

Lee and Kara's quarters

After Boomer and Kara entered the room Kara grabbed a bottle of Mark's rare scotch he had given them for rough times he had told them at the time.

Kara figured what they had gone through counted as such, so she poured a glass and made a motion to Boomer " Sure, I think I could use a drink myself "

As Kara sipped her drink she relaxed " We have to tell Lee, I can't keep this from him "

Boomer thought as much " I agree "

All of a sudden Lee burst into the room going straight for Kara and wrapped her in a hug so tight she could barely breathe, she pulled back " I'm okay Lee, is something wrong? "

Lee smirked " That is my question to you, what happened out there? "

Boomer walked near them " First tell us what you know "

Lee looked at both of them " I only know that there was trouble and you both got help, that's it your turn "

Boomer mutterd " Willow "

Lee nodded, but was looking at Kara " Tell me "

Kara refreshed her drink and poured Lee one. Then her and Boomer took turns telling him all of it.

Lee took a swallow before responding " Wow, first we don't mention the coordinates or activation right now, second I think it was Apollo who took Dee "

Kara gasped " If so then I bet he flew her into the sun, she can't come back from that " she chuckled she had to remember to tell Boomer about Lee and Apollo, instead she looked at Lee " Looks like Apollo joined the game " he gave her a shut up look.

Boomer was stunned " How did he know? "

Lee grinned " Willow said Apollo and Aurora were together today. We need a good cover story about where you two have been, a lot of cylons and people want answers especially, Caprica and Athena "

Kara smirked " We just say that Aurora sent us away on the chosen ones private business, Willow won't say different cause I'm sure she knows what we were doing "

Lee nodded " She does, now I need to tell you two something "

As they sat and finished their drinks Lee explained about the cylons and hybrids. He told them the new story and about Willow's new found enlightenment.

Boomer and Kara were more shocked about Willow then the rest. " What does that even mean? " Boomer asked

Lee looked at Kara " I was hoping you might know Kara "

Kara shrugged " I have heard of Demi-Gods, but Willow can't be one simply because she is a cylon. As far as being more than an Oracle we could ask Eloshi, but I don't think she would know either. That leaves asking an Oracle or Aurora to explain it "

Lee chuckled " Well it upset Caprica a lot. We need to get to a basestar, I want to see what happens "

Boomer stood up " You two can go, I need to check in with Commander Adama "

Eos

Priestess Eloshi had waited patiently while waiting on the Pythia followers to gather in the room they used for meetings. She saw them glance her way as they came in then started talking quietly among themselves.

Priestess Ella approached her, so she asked " Have I been replaced as Pythias's leader? "

Ella shrugged " We have been discussing it " she looked away then back " I saw in the meeting a Priest spoke for Aurora's followers "

Eloshi nodded " He is their leader and even though I agree that this is Aurora's cycle I am still a Pythian "

Ella accused her " I got dragged into this because you chose not to consul Roslin anymore, so why should we change our path? You are the one who agreed with Roslin from the beginning "

Eloshi turned to face her " I have spoken to Aurora and know the chosen one, that you all know. " she looked around " Let me ask you why no one spoke for the House of Pythia in the meeting, then I will tell you more "

Ella looked at her " I was there, but we agreed to keep our silence until we knew more "

Eloshi smiled " It seems like you are in charge even if it hasn't been decided yet, so I will tell you and you can relay it to everyone before the meeting today "

Ella interrupted " No one has said they want you to step aside, we were just trying to decide what to do "

Eloshi reached for hand " It's okay Ella my time now is for Aurora and her chosen one. You need to get the House of Pythia to agree to follow Aurora, there can be no doubts. Commander Adama is leaving soon to follow Aurora's path, his military personal are in agreement with him. The cylons are also only taking the ones who denounce the cylon god, we both know there isn't one." Eloshi sighed " Do not repeat what I tell you until after the meeting, humans and cylons who don't fall in line will be left on Kobol "

Ella gasped " How will they know who speaks true? "

Eloshi let go of her hand " Aurora will know and the place we are going to will be our new home, one chosen by Aurora. Once we get there all of the religions can continue their ways, everyone just has to agree that Aurora is the one we should follow. Please Ella for our house convince them and the other houses might change their mind if you all do, now I need to go "

As Eloshi left some of them spoke to her, some tried asking questions so she spoke up " Priestess Ella will speak with you " she looked around " Do not doubt that Aurora is here "

Eliza's Basestar

Eliza had taken Sam and his two friends to the room the resistance members were in.

Although there were five of them Sam only had eyes for one.

He ran and grabbed a woman " Jean I thought we lost you to the cylons "

Jean hugged him back " We thought the same of you bunch, when we got separated we went back into the mountains "

Ten Point spoke up " We thought the cylons had come to kill us, it took a while but they convinced us we were being saved "

Jean asked " How did you end up here? "

Sam laughed " I couldn't tell you even if I wanted to, but I can say that we ran into some humans and friendly cylons " he added " I didn't think you were alive or we wouldn't have left, I'm sorry "

Jean looked around " Don't worry about it we are all here now. How many came with you? "

Sam looked at his friends " About fifteen, Conner, Bryce and I work on the Galactica and the rest are civilians in the fleet "

Conner glanced at Eliza " How has it been staying here? "

Jean looked at Eliza and chuckled " Wonderful, probably better than if humans had rescued us "

Ten Point added " We have good food and showers and other than helping out with the others who were less fortunate than us we have just been laying around on our asses most of the time "

Bryce chuckled " Sounds like you are doing better than us, we have to eat mush and work, we only sleep when we are off duty which isn't often "

Eliza cleared her throat " Sam we have something important coming up, so they need to stay here in this room until it's over "

Sam walked over to her and whispered " I know most of what's going on, do you think we are needed for this? "

Eliza asked " No, are you on duty? " Sam shook his head " No, we were off when the Commander sent us here, but we go on in two hours "

Eliza nodded " It should be over by then, but if you stay this room is being locked down with the speakers off " she added " You can use this time to let them know we are leaving and make sure they agree, I don't have to remind you what happens if they don't agree with the commander "

Sam stepped back " I know, I'll take care of it "

Eliza left and locked the door.

Sam turned around to find them looking at him.

Jean asked " What the frak is going on Sam, we have never been locked in before? "

Sam sat down and sighed " I can tell you some of it, but not all and you need to listen "

Conner joined him on the floor " Trust him, we don't even know everything "

They all sat down with Jean sitting next to Sam holding his hand.

A.N. I am ending it here and starting my next chapter. This day has a lot more since I am adding a twist.
